The Dart Posted February 5, 2018 Posted February 5, 2018 Makes you really appreciate the value of the Network when you look at the listings for some of those old tapes and think they probably cost £15-£20 to buy. More probably for the earlier ones.
The King Of Swing Posted February 5, 2018 Posted February 5, 2018 It really is amazing. I'm still assuming that an eventual price increase is in the works though, especially as more is added. Isn't Wrestlemania alone about £25 on box office? Not sure what they make on advertising but £9.99 is ridiculously low for the amount of content. Was the rumoured tier pricing, ever brought up again?

FailedPromoter Posted February 5, 2018 Posted February 5, 2018 They've just been added now guys according to the WWE Network Bot on Twitter.
Paid Members tiger_rick Posted February 5, 2018 Paid Members Posted February 5, 2018 That's right, the "Vault" section has a new "Home Video Classics" sub-section. Just look at the beauty of some of these thumbnails. Sweet memories.
FailedPromoter Posted February 5, 2018 Posted February 5, 2018 First thing I hoy on is WrestleFest '92 and within a minute, Gene and Bobby discuss the differences between tennis and table tennis. Heenan slaying me with "Let's play table tennis, you play with a Chinese guy and he brings you egg rolls!" Imagine that flying in todays' product. Amazing.
The King Of Swing Posted February 5, 2018 Posted February 5, 2018 Noooooo they've dubbed the classic intro music, on the 80's tapes

My first ever wrestling tape. It had Savage vs DiBiase for the title from WrestleMania IV, which gave me an early appreciation for the toll that the sport takes on a wrestler's body, because the commentators were really labouring the point that Savage had wrestled three times already. I was also impressed that he'd managed to become such a big star by the time of his fourth match.
FailedPromoter Posted February 5, 2018 Posted February 5, 2018 Unfortunately not mate, it seems to be this one Only Savage match is him v Warrior from a house show at MSG from '89.
Paid Members Kaz Hayashi Posted February 5, 2018 Paid Members Posted February 5, 2018 ... and all was fine with the world. Well I’m clearly going to have to stay up all night watching these, have a shit day tomorrow due to tiredness, so will have to remedy that by watching the remainder as the day progresses.

I opened a student bank account with Nat West and they gave me £20 in HMV vouchers. Bought that and something like "WrestleMania's Greatest Hits" for a tenner each.
RIDDUM_N_STYLE Posted February 5, 2018 Posted February 5, 2018 According to WWE Network News, the version of World Tour 92 that’s gone up is the one Silver Vision released here which had 5 different matches to that of the Coliseum release in the US. On our version we got High Energy v Beverly Brothers, Bulldog v Repo Man, Bulldog’s match at WM7 v Warlord, Slaughter v Martel and Santana v Kato instead of Von Erich v Mountie, Bulldog v Earthquake and v IRS and Bret v Martel Also they’ve edited out Funk attacking Mel Phillips on the Villains tape but left it in on Most Embarrassing Moments for some reason
Paid Members Kaz Hayashi Posted February 5, 2018 Paid Members Posted February 5, 2018 The US version sounds bloody good. The 3 matches mentioned sound lovely on paper.
